Handblown Glass Bowl

Product Information

Article Number 41420

Height 15 cm, Ø 19.5 cm. Weight 1.4 kg.

This bowl is actually formed the same way as hollow glassware would have been made in ancient times - using a blowpipe. The glassmaker blows hot molten glass into a preform made of steel until the molten glass takes on the desired shape and relief-like bumps are formed.
When still hot, the glassmaker turns the glass in coloring powder, heats it again and, in a series of stages, creates the final shape. This craft is still taught at the "Glasfachschule" in Zwiesel, Bavaria.
